Lego Minifigures MMO game coming to Amazon Fire TV

Amazon and Funcom, the developer of the highly anticipated massively multiplayer online (MMO) game Lego Minifigures, have announced that they are working together to bring the game to the Fire TV later this year. The game, currently in beta for Windows only, allows players to unlock and play as various minifigure characters from Lego’s themed building sets.

The game will also be released for Amazon’s HDX line of Fire tablets early next year. It will be the first game which allows cross platform online gameplay between the Fire TV and various other devices, including Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. The game will be free to play with optional in-app purchases. No word on whether the game will be compatible with the newly announced Fire TV Stick.

This Lego game will be free from day one, but I hear what you’re saying. I’ve got more great paid games to play then I have time for thanks to Amazon’s deals. I can’t say the same for my iOS or Play Store devices.
